Lost Password

Thanks for all the help and advice, I got everything working fine with sessions and what not.
Now I am back asking for help writing some scripts if anyone is willing... I am unsure how to write the code, with the exception of the random md5 password which I found on the net, I just don't know how to incorporate it. Like always, any and all help is welcomed and appreciated.

My Goal Is To :
A: send a link to a user w/ a temp generated pass
B: Once the user logs in they will be directed to a reset.php which will ask for their
username and new password
C: Send another email with their new password

umm.. my question is, do you really need this complicated code to generate random password ? The user is going to reset it anyway. Well, for small purposes like this one, I would rather use something like this. This will generate random password. Send a link to the user with this random password.

I agree. That script is entirely unnecessary unless you're locking down Fort Knox.

First, you create a more or less random hash by using time() as your string. Then, you take the first eight letters of the hash as your random password. Then you take the hash of that password ($hashToStore) to store in the database and e-mail the actual password ($pw) to the user.

If you really wanted to create a password with truly random characters, you could use this. It loops eight times, each time adding a random character (0-9, a-z, A-Z) to the string. At the end, you'll end up with a random 8-char string.

I have a 2d matrix with dimension (3, n) called A, I want to calculate the normalization and cross product of two arrays (b,z) (see the code please) for each column (for the first column, then the second one and so on).
